Knowing what to do during a fire can save you life. It is important to know the ways you can use and show them to everyone in the family, such as stairways and fire escapes, but not lifts.From the lower floors of the buildings, we can use windows. We should learn the best way of leaving through windows with the least chance of serious injury.The second floor window is usually not very high from the ground. An average person, hanging by the finger-tips will have a drop of about six feet to the ground. It is about the height of an average man. Of course, it is safer to jump out in a right way than to stay in a burning building.Windows are also useful when you are waiting for help. Be sure to keep the door closed, or smoke and fire may be drawn into the room. Keep your head low at the window to be sure you get fresh air rather than smoke that may leaked（渗）into the room.On a second or third floor, a person can escape through a window that open onto a roof. Then from the roof drop to the ground. Dropping onto cement（水泥）might end in injury. Bushes（灌木丛）and grass can help to break a fall.（1）根据短文内容完成句子填空(每空限填一个单词)。The passage mainly tells us _ to _ ourselves if we are in a burning building.（2）根据短文内容完成句子填空(每空限填一个单词)。It is possible to escape _ _from the lower floors of a burning building.（3）根据短文内容完成句子填空(每空限填一个单词)。Its _ to drop onto brushes or grass than onto _.（4）把短文中画底线的句子译成汉语。（5）根据短文内容用一个完整的英文句子（限15个词以内）回答问题。What does the last paragraph tell us?23. （16分）阅读理解DHave you ever seen a car without a driver? It sounds crazy, but these computer-driven driverless cars will soon be filling roads near you. Companies like Google and Tesla have been designing and testing these cars, and the technology is there.So how? The cars have sensors（感应器）all around which can find other cars and objects in the road. Road signs are read by cameras, and satellite navigation systems（卫星导航系统）are used so the car knows how to get where you want to go. All you have to do is type in the address! Finally, a central computer system takes in all the information that it receives from the sensors and cameras and works out when to speed up, stop and turn.Sound like your idea of heaven（天堂）? Sitting back, looking out of the windows and even watching a film or reading a book while driving would be possible with this new technology. You wouldnt have to worry about remembering directions to where youre going. In addition, computers would also drive more safely than people they would obey the rules and have quicker action times when in dangerous situations.However, there are many drawbacks of driverless cars. Computers would have difficulties making ethical（道德的）decisions: if a child ran into the road, would the computer choose to hit the child or turn suddenly and potentially kill the cars passengers? Moreover, I personally find driving fun Id miss never driving a car myself. There would also be many other decisions to be made should children, or drunk people, be allowed in a driverless car by themselves? Or would there need to be a person with a driving license in the car at all times?Im not certain Id want a driverless car but its only a matter of time before theyll become more affordable and popular on our roads.（1）When using a driverless car, you need only .A . read the road signs carefullyB . check the camerasC . put the address into the computerD . remember the directions（2）When using a driverless car, you need only .A . read the road signs carefullyB . check the camerasC . put the address into the computerD . remember the directions（3）The third paragraph mainly tells us about the of driverless cars.A . instructionsB . standardsC . advantagesD . tests（4）The third paragraph mainly tells us about the of driverless cars.A . instructionsB . standardsC . advantagesD . tests（5）The underlined word potentially in Paragraph 4 means .A . possiblyB . successfullyC . especiallyD . naturally（6）The underlined word potentially in Paragraph 4 means .A . possiblyB . successfullyC . especiallyD . naturally（7）Whats the writers opinion about future driverless cars?A . Theyll cause more accidents.B . Theyll be less expensive.C . Theyll use less energy.D . Theyll run much faster.（8）Whats the writers opinion about future driverless cars?A . Theyll cause more accidents.B . Theyll be less expensive.C . Theyll use less energy.D . Theyll run much faster.24. （8分）根据短文内容，选择正确答案。CToday there are 6 billion people on the earth. By the year 2050 there may be 12.5 billion. There are a lot of people to feed. We need more food.One way to produce more food is by growing stronger plants. For thousands of years，farmers have made plants better. Every season, they pick the best plants for the next season. It works very slowly. Since 1983, scientists have been able to change plants more quickly by changing their genetic material (遗传物质). Foods from plants grown in this way are called genetically modified foods (转基因食品), or GM foods. By changing the genetic material of a plant, it is possible to make new plants. They make plants which are strong against plant diseases. They can also help with our diseases: a kind of rice is being prepared, for example, which stops people from becoming blind.Rich countries produce GM foods because they are easy to grow and bring in more money. Poor countries are interested in them because they help produce more food.GM plants are not natural. No one knows how good or bad they are. Making GM foods is only one way of feeding people in 2050. There are strong feelings against them, because they are unnatural. They may feed people, and then hurt them or their children later. But, both rich and poor countries are very interested in their use, and they are not going to go away. In 2050, we may think differently about them.（1）GM foods are made by _.A . farmersB . workersC . ScientistsD . plants（2）What are the good things about GM foods?A . They make plants strong against diseases.B . They are unnatural. C . They can help in human diseases.D . Both A and C（3）According to the passage, GM foods_.A . are a quick way to produce foodB . grow in the wildC . are safeD . are grown only in rich countries（4）From the passage, we know that_.A . GM foods will disappear one day in the futureB . GM foods will not disappear in the futureC . people will be interested in GM foodsD . people will have to stop using GM foods25. （5分）阅读短文，按要求完成短文后的各项任务。Smog is a big problem in many Chinese cities.
